This year’s Deadpool game seems likely to be won by Paul as he was the only player with Harold Pinter. Still, one day yet to go.

Deadpool Update
Posted on in Games.The death of Mark Felt puts Paul on two deaths in this year’s Deadpool game, bringing him level with Mike and myself. Under the tie-breaker rules I would win as I have the youngest death (relatively speaking as Charlton Heston was 84). There are, of course, just under two weeks left of the game.
Catching up
Posted on in Computer Games, My Life, TV.A reminder that you can see where I work in the episode of Spooks that starts on BBC 1 in fifteen minutes.
Mike emails to tell me that Jack Weil and Arthur Andrews are deceased and that he is in joint first place in the Deadpool game.
I seem to have fallen off the NaBloPoMo wagon by failing to post over the weeked. Every day in November is hence out but I will try to make 30 posts in the month. This one makes it 19 in 17 days.
On Saturday ![[info]](http://stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small}
pink_weasel (on a post-Cliff high) and I met up with some folks in Guildford and had lunch in a restaurant on top of a multi-storey car park. It sounds odd and a bit grim but the Thai Terrace is fantastic and I really want to go back in the summer and sit outside.
I also got given a copy of Grand Theft Auto, not the latest one, the last one. I like mayhem. 
Deadpool, dead web sites
Posted on in Blogs, WWW.The death of Studs Terkel on Friday means that Paul moves up to joint second place in this year’s deadpool game.
Annoyingly, I can’t update the web site, or upload some changes I’ve made to the templates for this blog because FTP to both servers is broken. One reports an authentication error and the other a timeout error.

January catch up
Posted on in My Life, Sport, Work.I met Jeremy Beadle once. He was hosting a charity quiz night that WW sent a team along to.
No one had him on their lists for this year’s Deadpool game.
This morning we launched a revised version of the Visit London home page. Along with a tie up with Trip Advisor, a new Japanese site and a site for the China in London season, as well as lots of behind the scenes improvements, it’s been a really packed January.
One thing that crosses over from behind the scenes to public is the addition of microformats to the site. hCard, hCalendar and hReview are all in use. Whilst hCard was straightforward to implement I found the hCalendar and hReview formats a little tricky to apply to our data. Anyway, install Operator and take Firefox for a whirl on the site and see what you find.
Rugby tomorrow. Oh yes, it’s Six Nations time again.
